英语是一门奇怪的语言,一个英语词汇的发音有可能会和其他国家的词汇发音一样,但是其含义就千差万别,虽然英语是世界通用的语言,但是如果你去某一个国家使用英语交流的时候一定要小心你的口语发音。

English is a strange language. It's got words with silent letters that throw non-native speakers completely off. What is up with that? Regardless, it is still one of the most widely spoken languages around the world. That doesn't mean that some of the words don't have a ridiculous meaning in a different country, though. Hint: calling someone a brat in Russia isn't an insult.
